Determination of karst aquifer characteristics using physicochemical parameters (A case study from west of Iran)
The karstic Rijab Spring with an average discharge of 3290 l/s is located in the Alvand River basin in the northwest of the Zagros, Iran, which drains Asmari formation. To investigate groundwater flow in the catchment area of the Spring, the physicochemical parameters include major cations and anions, discharge, EC, pH, and temperature were studied from September 2000-2002. The results indicate...
متن کاملDegree-1 Earth deformation from very long baseline interferometry measurements
[1] The presence of degree-1 deformations in very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) measurements is detected for the first time. We compare VLBI measurements with the deformation field predicted using a GPS-determined load moment. Degree-1 series in the center of figure frame have root mean square values up to 3 and 1.5 mm in the up and horizontal components respectively. The predicted baseli...
متن کاملDetecting hydrologic deformation using GRACE and GPS
[1] Hydrological processes cause variations in gravitational potential and surface deformations, both of which are detectable using space geodetic techniques. We computed elastic deformation using continental water load estimates derived from the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment and compared to 3D deformation estimated from GPS observations. The agreement is very good in areas where larg...
متن کاملMonitoring Bridge Dynamic Responses Using Fiber Bragg Grating Tiltmeters
In bridge health monitoring, tiltmeters have been used for measuring rotation and curvature; however, their application in dynamic parameter identification has been lacking. This study installed fiber Bragg grating (FBG) tiltmeters on the bearings of a bridge and monitored the dynamic rotational angle. The dynamic features, including natural frequencies and mode shapes, have been identified suc...
متن کاملHydrothermal waters from karst aquifer: Case study of the Trozza basin (Central Tunisia)
Tunisia is rich in geothermal resources from ancient civilizations. Hydrothermal activity in Tunisia has been related to three main stages: magmatic and tectonic activities, eustatisme (Atlantic and Mediterranean coupling) and climate change. The principal factor and the responsable of this phenomenon is the meteoric water by piston flow processes. It constitue the catalyst of volcanism. The Tr...
